We are home to two world-renowned national laboratories, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories. Livermore’s heritage includes some of the oldest commercial vineyards in California, and a tradition of cattle ranching. Today, our city continues to expand its wine-making industry and is home to over 50 wineries and growing. There is a diverse art and cultural community in Livermore, as well as a strong western tradition that is celebrated annually with a rodeo and parade.

Livermore has a beautiful and revitalized downtown, anchored by a 500-seat performing arts theater and a 13-screen cinema, the largest solar powered theater in the nation. There are also numerous gourmet restaurants, specialty shops, commercial offices and a public plaza.

The Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District consistently provides high-quality, K-12 education to our community, and Las Positas College is an innovative leader in education through partnerships with local businesses and our two national labs.
